president obama won an election, but they all won an election too. you don't see a lot of chastene this election. it's going to be hard to get things done. but the president got a lot of big things done in his first term, so i'll expect it again. >> when he got a lot of big things done, it was immediately, as soon as he got into office. i think he's in a sweet spot. before outside events begin to shape the context and text you're of a second term. the time is really now, but it's shorter, and i think you have less ability in the second term. >> substantively, i think you have to say this is a president whose first term handed him a tougher set of problems. whether to nationalize the banks, whether to let general motors go bankrupt, the worst economic downturn since the depression. he's not in that kind of crisis situation. and legislatively, it's obviously going to be tough. i think he does have openings he didn't have in the first term. the fact he reconfirmed this democratic majority puts more pressure on republicans to rethink where they are and m
